[TenTec] Re: Centurion / Mike-N4NT

Hi Mike, I would recommend the Centurion as a good workhorse amp, My ego just 
needed stroking, so I bought the Titan 425 gold #49 since I figured it was as 
late a model as I could get (1997). There are a few things about the Titan 
425 that people need to be aware of, The blower fan and plate current meter are 
no longer available according to Garry at TT. Also, 3CX800's are selling new 
for $450-475 each if you need to replace them. However, with some shopping 
around, I'm sure you can find
good medical pulls or even new medical overstock for about 1/2 price. I just 
wanted
a legal limit + amp so I had some extra headroom. And the Rf Deck matches my
6+ better physically. Otherwise, I would have kept the Centurion, as all 
parts are
still available, and it's built like a tank. Mine worked great, but I 
couldn't afford both.
It's on it's way to 5 land and another happy TT home.  73.
